How to pick well

Before you pick a vet, ask three things: do they see emergencies and, if not, which 24-hour hospital do they send you to; who answers the phone after hours and on weekends; and how they handle a first visit with a nervous pet. A good clinic tells you plainly when something can wait until morning versus when to come in now, gives you a real estimate before treatment, and takes the time to let an anxious dog or cat settle instead of rushing the exam.

Call the top rated veterinarians and animal hospitals on this page and ask two things before you agree to anything: are you dispatching tonight, and what is the after-hours call-out fee. A company that answers both plainly on the phone is usually the one that actually shows up.
